Because is time to say goodbye to this wonderful dress I
thought of giving it a last tribute.

The dress is having a very long story, that long that I do
not know it entirely. I purchased it a few years ago from a vintage website. In
its original form it was long to the ground. I brought it to a medium length
and in addition I “dressed up” the top side of it with a fabric having metal
insertions. I turned it into a real “gem” was my first occasion dress ..
and yet a dress.

It was with me to a numerous events (weddings, New Year
parties), attracted eyes, admiration and envy of many but today I wore it for
the last time and also for the first time in a street style way.

The combo of different textures will always be catchy and,
luckily the trends from the past few years allow us; even encourages us to
juggle with textures, shapes, volumes and colours. If years ago knitted
sweaters were accepted only with jeans, today we can match them with silk
pants, lace skirts, cotton dresses, within casual office attire or tulle ruffles
dresses.
